How does the motorcycle gear indicator work？

The digital gear indicator tell you what gear you are in anytime and anywhere when you are riding. It works by connecting to your bike wires to collect signals from bike electronics.

Origin of gear indicator

The earliest gear display appears on vehicles with cyclic gear shifting. Because there is only neutral between the top gear and the first gear, in order to prevent misoperation, the gear display is set. At present, many locomotives on the market use international gear, and the common gear is 1-0-2-3-4-5-6, and can only step back and forth without cycling, which reduces the risk of misoperation.

At present, many motorcycles on the market are equipped with corresponding gear display. On the one hand, considering the novice's ignorance of the relationship between gear and speed when riding a motorcycle for the first time, taking care of the novice can quickly master the skills of driving the motorcycle, on the other hand, digital gear indicators can help the motorcyclist control the speed of the motor bicycle.

Most cases, our motorcycles do not have one gear indicator, we need hold the clutch to decrease the gear position to neutral gear to see what gear we are in. But if we install one gear indicator, we can know what gear easily.

Here we listed all kinds of motorcycle gear indicators for you. Some are universal gear indicators, some are plug and play gear indicators for yamaha, ducati, honda, kawasaki, suzuki, harley motorcycles.
